Improvements in Patient-Reported Outcomes Through Six Months of Guselkumab Treatment in Patients With Active Psoriatic Arthritis: Real-World Data From the CorEvitas Psoriatic Arthritis/Spondyloarthritis Registry.

Objective: Evaluate patient-reported outcomes after 6 months of on-label guselkumab use in patients with rheumatologist-diagnosed active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) enrolled in the CorEvitas PsA/Spondyloarthritis Registry.

Methods: This analysis includes registry participants who initiated and persisted with on-label guselkumab (after US Food and Drug Administration approval for PsA; 100 mg at weeks 0, 4, and every 8 weeks) at their 6-month follow-up visit (On-Label Persisters). Among patients not meeting response criteria at baseline, responses at 6 months were determined for patient-reported outcomes, including patient-reported pain (0-100 mm visual analog scale), patient global assessment of arthritis + psoriasis (PtGA; 0-100 visual analog scale), and Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI; 0-3).

Treatment Patterns and Effectiveness of Tofacitinib in Patients Initiating Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis: Results From the CorEvitas Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry.

Objective: This real-world analysis assessed baseline demographics/characteristics and treatment patterns/effectiveness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) initiating tofacitinib (TOF) in the US CorEvitas RA Registry.

Methods: The primary analysis of this study included patients with RA initiating TOF with a 12-month follow-up visit from November 2012 to January 2021. Outcomes included baseline demographics/characteristics and TOF initiation/discontinuation reasons, treatment patterns, and effectiveness (disease activity and patient-reported outcomes [PROs] at 12 months); the primary effectiveness outcome was Clinical Disease Activity Index low disease activity (CDAI LDA).

A value-based healthcare model for initiating and switching psoriasis therapies-Results from the prospective multicentre IMPROVE study.

Background: Little is known about the therapeutic benefits of a value-based healthcare model compared to a traditional activity-based incentive model in psoriasis (PsO).

Objectives: This prospective non-interventional study evaluated an outcome-based, patient-centred management model for patients with PsO.

Methods: In total, 49 patients with a Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) ≥3 who were starting or switching between treatments were included.

An IQ Consortium Perspective on Best Practices for Bioanalytical and Immunogenicity Assessment Aspects of CAR-T and TCR-T Cellular Therapies Development.

CAR-T therapies have shown remarkable efficacy against hematological malignancies in the clinic over the last decade and new studies indicate that progress is being made to use these novel therapies to target solid tumors as well as treat autoimmune disease. Innovation in the field, including TCR-T, allogeneic or "off the shelf" CAR-T, and autoantigen/armored CAR-Ts are likely to increase the efficacy and applications of these therapies. The unique aspects of these cell-based therapeutics; patient-derived cells, intracellular expression, in vivo expansion, and phenotypic changes provide unique bioanalytical challenges to develop pharmacokinetic and immunogenicity assessments.
